  • Hi everyone
    good start to the week....have stashed 2 x £2 coins from change into a very tightly sealed and large tin (I'm being optimistic!!!)

    That £4 quid could have been a bottle of wine and a couple of millimetres on my muffin tops-lol-but oh no....in the tin it went!

    God luck everyone else x
    1st goal - reduce overdraft from £398 (feb2011)
    £2 challenge #123- 03/06/2011 = £68 :j
    VSP challenge 2011 #112 - 03/06/2011 = £180.87 sshhh...dont tell the creditors :shhh:

    weight loss goal start 25/4/11 = 9lbs.2/5/11=7lbs finish 31/5/11. 3/6/2011 lost 6lbs!!!
  • I've been thinking that too, Love a Bargain! It does mean though that as soon as I get one I'm like "Woo hoo, what a surprise!" and am excited about saving it ;)

    Same here, a "woo hoo" for me today:j, my OH gave me one!

    Another £2 for me :j

    I work in a shop and more often than not, there are one or two £2 coins in the float. I feel that I would be cheating if everyday I just swapped my change for these beauties. I was thrilled yesterday when I bought something and I was able to give myself a £2 coin in my change :j:j
